Flu season is here as we all know, and the fever, headache, chills and body aches are coming to affect your lymphatic system.  It is the first line of defense for your immune system.  Your body is built to withstand exposures as long as your immune system is healthy.

Your lymphatic system is your body’s drainage system, that filters out bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances through a network of ducts and lymph nodes.  Lymph ducts are located along the spine and the neck.  When your spine is out of alignment, these ducts can become blocked by pressure and will not drain properly.

Chiropractic adjustments alleviate this pressure, allowing the ducts to flush out the bacteria and viruses that cause the common cold and flu, causing them to flow more freely.  Chiropractic also enhances appetite, facilitates a more active lifestyle and improves sleep; all of which boosts your immune system.

Getting the original neck bone may be essential for your health. From the side view of your neck you  should have a natural forward curve. http://umm.edu/programs/spine/health/guides/cervical-kyphosis

Dr. J Hartley has been helping people understand the importance of a normal forward cervical curve for 20 years.

The Forward Head Factor When Sleeping On Your Back

Most cervical pillow make the head go forward. The ear should be centered over the shoulders. The Neck Bone allows you to sleep with the normal curve and keep your head over your shoulders. http://www.originalbones.com/why-original-bones.php

The Health Factor

Loss of cervical curve and forward head posture cause cervical cord pressure, nerve root and spine tension resulting in loss of health. The Neck Bone corrects both cervical curve and forward head posture.

Upper cervical neck adjustments relieve the tension on your brain stem, which then allows your throat to be more relaxed and allow your sinus passages in your head to drain. Too much tension in your neck restricts the nervous communication to your sinus passages, which then causes pressure that restricts drainage from happening. Chronic sinus infections happen when there is extra pressure on your sinuses and no outlet for the fluids. These fluids provide a continual breeding ground for bacteria to grow. If you have found yourself with a fall-induced cold or sinus infection, I strongly recommend you stop by for a chiropractic adjustment to speed up your recovery. After receiving chiropractic adjustments for colds and sinus infections,  patients often say ”  I felt my head and sinus passages start to drain within 5 minutes of an adjustment”.

Every cell, organ, and tissue in the human body is controlled by your Nervous System.
